“The Ketubah is the Jewish marriage contract, and Ralphie says she shattered the glass box that held theirs, then stabbed it repeatedly with scissors… right in front of him and their children. Earlier this year, TMZ reported that the divorce was “getting VERY nasty” as Ralphie filed court documents claiming his wife was keeping the children in Los Angeles and had destroyed their Ketubah. Their divorce struggles also became fodder for celebrity news outlets. Turner sought sole physical custody of the children and was seeking spousal support as well.
The two had been married for 10 years when Turner filed for divorce, TMZ reported, and the couple share two children together. As the set went on, May had a hard time finishing his jokes and often lost his place, leading many in the crowd to start booing and several to demand a refund from the comedy venue. The report noted that Ralphie May was so high that he struggled to make it on stage to start his performance, and he was unable to even string a sentence together once he was finally able to make it to the microphone. Earlier that year, police had to escort May out of a comedy venue in Colorado after he reportedly consumed too many marijuana edibles and appeared confused and incoherent on stage, the Daily Mail noted. Though Turner was still legally married to Ralphie May at the time of his death, she had filed for divorce in 2015 amid some very public struggles with drug abuse for the comedian. The two were married in 2005 but separated a decade later, and the divorce had been playing out in the public eye.
May’s death has brought some of his struggles to light, including his tumultuous relationship with wife Lahna Turner, a fellow comedian. As the Hollywood Reporter noted, May was in the midst of a nationwide tour but had to cancel a handful of dates in recent weeks after a bout with pneumonia. May, who made a comedy career out of his larger-than-life size and lifestyle, died on Friday after suffering cardiac arrest. Lahna Turner shared a rocky relationship with Ralphie May, with very public allegations of mistreatment that have now come to light with the death of the popular but troubled comedian.
